Title: Qt 5.8.0 does not work on Windows XP or Vista - question for users
Post by: Liviu Lalescu on February 14, 2017, 01:35:38 PM
Qt 5.8.0 (to be added to official FET-5.31.0 and further) does not support Windows XP or Vista.

I would like to make also a version running on these older Windows OS's. Please tell me how should I name the package:

fet-5.31.0-qt-5.7.1

or

fet-5.31.0-old-win

or

fet-5.31.0-older-windows

or...?

Please suggest.

I hope to release FET-5.31.0 on Wednesday (15 February 2017) or Thursday.

Windows, XP and Vista are registered trademarks, I am a bit afraid Microsoft guys might not like this.

Or could I just release FET working in Windows 7 or later, dropping support for Windows XP and Vista? Do you think there are people using old Windows?
